Neocities

I'm worried that *someone* is going to pester me about this eventually, so to be completely clear: I follow sites mainly based on whether i'm interested in keeping up with their content or curious about where they're going, and trim my list of followed sites regularly to make sure i'm still interested in everything that comes up on my dash — please don't get offended if you were included in one of those trims!

I thought all the Shakers had died off by now. Neat!

i always think of things i should have added to a blog post like an hour afterwards and then have to frantically patch them in and hope everyone hasn't already seen the older version lol

Saaame. Or I upload a page with a mistake in it, then I fix it but the screenshot is already there looking bad

Worse still is updating the blog after already making changes elsewhere on the site, because that just completely nukes anything older from showing up on the 4-image view

I sometimes have to work backwards with making pages - i.e. write "Dumb story #12"'s code in private, then add non-existent url hyperlinks to relevant pages, *then* add the desired page to my site. It's a real pain in the neck having to do that much work just to have a pleasant (or relevant) page screenshot!

URLs to some of the shrine pages have changed, so if you have anything that links to those do double-check

No new posts; just tidying up the sidebar a bit (especially in the archives)

Okay, did anyone else notice their site gaining a bunch of views when they first got Supporter status? Because i'm struggling to find *anything* else that could account for this weird bump in my site's views from November 16/17 (and continuing kinda to today)

satyrwoud 5 years ago

Google Search Console has turned up nothing from the date — my only hypothesis is that people went to see my site because of my funny post about the activity page?? but that doesn't explain the sustained nature of the bump

I've searched on Reddit, Facebook, Tumblr, bird website., YouTube... nothing

Aha! I think i might've found the source: https://serveur410.com/les-passages-secrets-du-web/ ← this french blog post about small websites and search engines, which has enough comments to make me believe it could have given me those views

Couldn't you use a Linux VM with WebKit installed? VirtualBox is free.

I've finally given in and made one of my pages openly Nostalgic™ and Retro™-themed, although not for the time period you'd expect

I think it should be background-attachment: scroll though—otherwise the skeuomorphic look of everything being engraved in granite is diminished :P
